If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options Thank you for the suggestions. At this point, I have tried each of the
scanners (consecutively) in normal mode, and then safe mode. The problem
still affects the PC...shortly after bootup in normal mode and connecting to
the Internet, the messages start to flow out rapidly. I really hate the idea
of building this PC. Any ideas on how to proceed next? Thanks again.
